Is Judicial Philosophy Melting into Bare Knuckles Politics?
No full textIn recent times, a crisis confronting constitutional adjudication has spread to various parts of the world. In several cases, this crisis is directly linked to turns to right-wing populism and illiberalism, whereas in others it arises in the context of an ongoing liberal constitutional setting. As attacks on judicial settling of contested constitutional issues have long endured, the question becomes whether this most recent crisis is veritably different or merely a variant in the quest against systemic “juridification.” Starting in the second half of the twentieth century there has been an expansion of the constitutionalization of politics with a corresponding politicization of the constitution. Does that irremediably blur the boundary between adjudication and politics? And are populist and illiberal conceptions of adjudication thus reducible to stark differences in political agendas? Based on the thesis that principled differences can be drawn between ordinary politics and judicial politics (or judicial philosophy), this article maintains that law and adjudication operate within a “language game” that remains distinct from that of ordinary politics. Consistent with this, a further distinction can be drawn between judicial politics “in substance” or based on a plurality of cogent judicial philosophies and judicial politics “in form” or using the language of law but animated by ordinary politics. By drawing on developments and cases in four different countries, Hungary and Poland under illiberal and populist rule, and Israel and the United States where liberal constitutional traditions have come under increasing stress, the article seeks to sort out the meaningful differences between liberal and illiberal or populist adjudication. The article concludes that except when populists and illiberals revert to patently unconstitutional means, they make use of the tools that generally animate the dynamic between judicial and ordinary politics. That said, overall populism and illiberalism’s approach to constitutional adjudication emerges as significantly different than what has preceded it within the confines of liberalism
From Bets to Threats: The Impact of Murphy on Student-Athletes
No full textThe United States is experiencing a surge in the sports betting market following the Supreme Court’s 2018 decision to open the door for legalization. College sports, a beloved tradition for decades, has only become more popular with the rise of social media, which allows fans to interact with the athletes directly without ever leaving their homes. Due to this accessibility and popularity, it is easy to see why sports betting and collegiate sports would go hand in hand. With the legalization of sports betting, fans are no longer just viewers of the game; they are investors. Fans can place proposition “prop” bets, which allows them to wager on specific aspects of an athlete’s performance. However, because prop bets are directly tied to an athlete’s in-game performance, bettors may feel as though the student-athlete is personally responsible if they lose a bet. In some instances, this frustration has led fans to reach out to athletes directly via social media. These students already face immense pressure trying to balance academic and athletic commitments, and now they must deal with the backlash from angry fans. Without social media, these fans would likely have no direct connection to the students at all. This new wave of harassment raises two questions: how did we get here, and who bears the responsibility for protecting student-athletes
Closed Doors to Justice: How the Copyright Claims Board is Shutting Out Pro Se Litigants
No full textThe Copyright Claims Board (CCB), established under the Copyright Alternative in Small-Claims Enforcement Act of 2020, was intended to provide an accessible forum for resolving small-value copyright disputes, particularly for pro se parties. However, the CCB has failed to fulfill this promise, with nearly 90% of pro se claims being dismissed without resolution on the merits. The CCB\u27s strict compliance requirements and failure to liberally construe pro se claims have created a system more burdensome than federal court, contrary to Congress\u27 intent. The article proposes reforms to align the CCB\u27s practices with its original purpose of accessibility and simplicity for unrepresented parties

The Life of a Copyright
No full textOn August 23rd, 2021, stand-up comedian Caroline Timoney posted a TikTok video where she stated, “I fear I may have girl bossed a little too close to the sun.” The video went viral and, to this day, it is her most viewed post on the platform, with upwards of seven and a half million views as of October 13, 2025, and over twenty-four thousand videos reposted using her audio. Taylor Swift’s twelfth and most recent album, The Life of a Showgirl, was released on October 3rd, 2025, and includes a song titled “CANCELLED!” featuring the lyric “Did you girlboss too close to the sun?” Fans were quick to make the connection between Timoney’s TikTok and Swift’s song lyric. On the day of Swift’s album release, Timoney made a TikTok that appears satirical, in which she calls herself “Taylor Swift’s Shakespeare” and says that, after this release, she sees herself as a co-writer
